    Missing fish.

    Sick fish, Bacterial maybe?

    I took a nice chunk of shrimp and dipped it in some garlic extreme. I dangled it in front of him and he gobbled it down =] YAY!!

    Sick fish, Bacterial maybe?

    I shall... I feed the Yellow tang before I pulled him out so I knew he had eaten. At lest now they are not alone in the QT.

    Sick fish, Bacterial maybe?

    NC2WA, I took your advice... I pulled out the yellow tang and put him in QT as well and now using maracyn II. Another sad loss to the tank today but not due to illness... I had to get rid of the green brittle starfish Lurch - 21 from tip to tip, he ate 2 of my green chromis last night =/.

    Sick fish, Bacterial maybe?

    I was looking at that one.. I am trying malafix on the niger that is in QT and I know its not reef safe but would like to treat all fish. I wish I had room to QT all of them.

    Sick fish, Bacterial maybe?

    2 weeks ago my Niger Trigger stopped eating and has been in QT since. I thought it was a parasite so I treated with copper, and it did nothing. He is still just hanging out in the QT not eating that I can see. Now my yellow tang has a some reddish look to its fins and the top fin is kind of...

    Coral Identification...

    Hmm Ill just have to keep an eye on it as it grows

    Coral Identification...

    Not sure. It is growing in the center of a dead head of some type of coral so I just thought it was the coral regrowing... If it is a nem it looks like it would be very bright.

    Coral Identification...

    Anyone know what this may be? It looks to be some kind of LPS. I got this small piece of rock because a crab was attached to it and would not come off. a few months later this little coral started popping up. It has continued to grow and now is about the size of a dime.

    13 Bills Proposed to ban or regulate collection of reef fishes in Hawaiian waters.

    I would be for this. I see no reason to keep taking the fish/coral from the wild when the major distributors we have the means of breeding them. If this means I cant have a fish or some type of coral then oh well... Ill just go diving and see them that way.

    Just started the cycle

    All people do the cycle different... Me I just dump in some bio-spira or seachems stability, let it run for 2 days and throw in a fish. Even BRS says adding a fish says it will help your tank along. Will people disagree with this method? yes. Do people do it? All the time. Do I recommend it to a...

    Need a new pump

    I have had my Reef Octopus NW200 skimmer for about 8 months and now when I turn off the pump and turn it back on it just clicks around and after a few hours it will start working again. Any suggestions for a replacement pump or where to get one?

    Cooking live rock?

    Instant Ocean Bio-Spira or seachems Stability will jump start your bacteria.... Saying that you still want to run you cycle but it will speed it up. Also remember to keep the bacteria you have to feed the bacteria... even if your tank is cycled with no fish once you add fish, the bioload will...

    Issues with SPS

    I guess I could update the pics =] The only real change I made was more water changes and I added MH lighting to my tank. In the pics you see some of the zoo's and pallys closed up because I just got done scrubbing the glass.
